1. My div. agr. states I should pay for 1/2 for educational expenses!!!!! nothing specifically broken down, which is the basic in div. agr. (my new wife's says the same). So I take this as 1/2 tuition, books and room and board. I already said I would pay for the rent! but he was supposed to get a roommate. I have already paid 1/2 his tuition and books for the past 2 years. (he is in 2nd year of college.

2. The contempt was for educational expenses. Ex had it listed, rent, heat, electric, cable, car, car insurance, car repairs, food - total $+-5K. You can file a contempt on anything you want to, then u both go to court and see who gets what or what agreement you come to. So you ask what the contempt was it was educational expenses. YES I was not paying his rent. I will agree to that, I wanted him to stay at the dorm or live at home with his mother or me and commute - its not that far.

3. Yes this was my first contempt! She has never pulled me back in for anything when he was younger. I have always paid my c.support. I just wanted to put my foot down on an apartment. my wife's ex owed her over $15K and they went to court and he didn't get thrown in jail. So yes if u know people that helps u for that, as i have said my ex knows everyone. I don't understand why you find this my first contempt really ODD. It is my first contempt. Ex wants her money back for sept. thru dec. for the rent, heat, electric, cable, food, car, car insurace car repairs. Like I said I know the system pretty good too and u can pull your ex in anytime for contempt its the part of proving who is right or wrong and come to an agreement. She filed the contempt beginning of december took 2 weeks for a court date. Just like my wife and her ex, he files a contempt on her 2 weeks later she has court date. It doesn't t ake long to get a court date on a contempt in massachusetts. U just go in and file! 2 weeks is roughly when your date is!

Any more info you need. Like i said i would't mind paying for half the rent if he got a roommate, but my other problem is why can't he commute, if we were still married he would be commuting! Thanks!
